Xavier, I have enjoyed your posts and would be sorry to see you going. The AOLServer community already has enough problems without scaring off new developers, so I would ask you to reconsider your decision and continue to post your questions and ideas. I am sure what happened was a once-off

Hello Xavier, I think that leaving is the worst thing you can do at the moment. Stay with us. After all, nobody is upset with you. Yes, nobody is upset. And, well, after all those e-mails we can say that everyone knows you, and what you can and can't do. So I don't see any logical reason to

So I have decided to stick with you guys. You are a great group of people and I have learned a lot from you already, you are right that it would be a mistake to stop now and look somewhere else. Plus I think there's basically no one else. I'd say 90% of the AOLServer expertise in the world is
